Project Description
MIT's wiki service originally began as a pilot, pioneered by OEIT. Through integrating Atlassian's Confluence wiki into MIT's security and authentication system, OEIT created a wiki environment which was both secure and flexible.

OEIT piloted the use of wikis for projects and courses at MIT. We selected Atlassian’s Confluence wiki, integrated it into the MIT web certificate authentication system (x509 certificates), and worked with faculty across the Institute to integrate its use into selected courses. A transition plan was developed and the pilot has been migrated to sustaining service provided by Information Services and Technology.

Lessons Learned:

Online laboratories (“iLabs”) are experimental systems that can be accessed through the Internet from a regular web browser. iLabs allow students and educators in science and engineering to carry out experiments from anywhere at any time.

Introduction

iLab is dedicated to the proposition that online laboratories-real laboratories accessed through the Internet can enrich science and engineering education by greatly expanding the range of experiments that students are exposed to in the course of their education. Online laboratories (“iLabs”) experimental systems can be accessed through the Internet from a regular web browser.

iLabs is a beautiful demonstration of the power of the web, the power of web services, and the power of new technology.
